D950 Digital Mixing System
2-22 Getting started
S/E PB / ••S/E REC
A double-click of this key activates all channel functions (except Fader
and Mute) to the automation system's active RECORD status (S/E stands
for Switches and Encoders).
A single press on this key performs the same functions as ••S/E REC, but
switches back to PLAYBACK status.
MUTE STAT
This key toggles the status of the Mute Automation between PLAYBACK
and RECORD, and also indicates that the ON key is in REC status.
PFL/SOLO
Selection between PFL and SOLO (and SOLO-IN-PLACE) is performed
globally using keys located in the D950's Central Section.
ON
This key provides ON/OFF control for the audio signal currently assigned
to the channel strip.
FDR STAT
This key allows toggling automation status PLAYBACK and RECORD
for the fader only, and also indicates that the fader is in REC status. By
first pressing CLR and then the FDR STAT button, the fader level is set to
unity gain.
SEL
This key has two main purposes:
• Access of the central audio and control facilities (CAU, ACU, etc.),
• Softkey for channel parameter control (SOLO SAFE, CH SWAP, etc.).
In addition, this key is used for other functions including control group,
strip lock, and joystick assignments and so on.
Fader
A 104 mm motorized fader providing highest reliability and smooth user
operation.
LED Indicators:
OVL
This is a real-time indicator of overloads occurring within the channel. A
global HOLD function also allows checking of overloads within "hidden"
channels.
ISO/READ/WRT
These LEDs indicate the current mode of Dynamic Automation system.
i, z
These LEDs indicate offset – greater or less than – between the current
fader position and the value stored by the AutoTouch Dynamic Automa-
tion, when active. These provide the ability to null the fader position to
create seamless transitions.
